Express gratitude to the 'Greatest Generation'

February 11, 2013

After reading an article on the "Greatest Generation," which includes those who were born between 1900 and 1930 and who lived through World War II, I feel we can never express enough gratitude for what they had to endure to preserve our freedom.

To see what's happening today — a president who has socialistic aspirations and ignores the traditional values that those people were willing to live and die for — they must feel it was all an exercise in futility. So on behalf of them, I may say, "God bless all of you and the United States of America"; this is before the name "God" joins the list of not-to-say words.
